Diverse Works

The goal of the work was to infect traditional ideas of beauty and authority with late Twentieth-Century culture and to thereby create an artifact that would reflect the multiplicity of our culture. My work, to date, has dealt with single works of a consistent media combining two and three-dimensional elements. I proposed to add to the complexity of my stated goal through a more varied use of medium; audio, photography, lighting, paint on canvas, reprocessed found objects as well as materials with which I presently work. Some of the work would extend off the wall or ceiling or floor into what might be called the "viewer's space." The end result would be a group of works which created a narrative and would culminate into a single work to be installed in a space as yet undetermined. Site possibilities I considered were my studio, the university gallery, and the critique room in Oak Street Hall.
